What's Wrong?
on typing anything into window:
API Error: 400 {"type":"error","error":{"type":"invalid_request_error","message":"messages.19.content.11: thinking or redacted_thinking blocks in the latest assistant message cannot be modified. These
blocks must remain as they were in the original response."},"request_id":"req_011CZqDHdNM4ZudjGxnucpZd"
and while trying to compact:
Error: Error during compaction: API Error: 400 {"type":"error","error":{"type":"invalid_request_error","message":"messages.19.content.11: thinking or redacted_thinking blocks in the latest assistant message
cannot be modified. These blocks must remain as they were in the original response."},"request_id":"req_011CZqFKdpvKyoYz2MvmwbFV"}
only solution was to clear / exit.
What Should Happen?
Respond normally.
